Can i follow the same routine even while breastfeed ot will it harm my baby? Worried since baby will have skin to skin touch going further.!!

You can continue with your routine. Just avoid contact immediately after application of vit C Serum and niacinamide

After pregnancy it would be great if you just use moisturiser and sunscreen as the other serums have higher chemicals into it which may be issues for baby in inhaling so avoid it atleast for 6 months
